2. Hazards Identification

There are no known health hazards from exposure to lamps that are intact.

Lamp Assembly: Glass and Metal-The glass is made from soda lime similar to that used throughout the glass industry for other

common consumer items. The metal for end caps and filaments are generally made from various amounts of aluminum, tin, lead,

copper, zinc, and nickel. None of these materials would present a potential hazard in the event of breakage of the lamp, aside

from the hazard due to broken glass.

Mercury: Small amounts of mercury are used in all fluorescent lamps. Generally around 0.025%by weight. The amount of

mercury present in any given lamp will vary depending on both the size of the lamp and on the equipment that was used in its

manufacture. CNLight continues to reduce the amounts of mercury used in fluorescent products.

Phosphor: (nuisance dust) phosphate mix using manganese, rare earth elements such as lanthanum, and yttrium as either an oxide

or as a phosphate, along with a barium/aluminum oxide all are tightly bound in the phosphor matrix. These phosphors produce

better lamp efficiency and color rendition. The phosphor components may vary slightly spending on the color of the lamp. Some

lamps may contain a thin coating of tin oxide inside the glass.

3. Physical Properties

ot applicable to intact lamp.

4. Fire and Explosion Hazards

Flammability: Non-combustible.

Fire Extinguishing Materials: Use extinguishing agents suitable for surrounding fire.

Special Firefighting Procedure: Use a self-contained breathing apparatus to prevent inhalation of dust and/or fumes that may be

generated from broken lamps during firefighting activities.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: When exposed to high temperature, toxic fumes may be released from broken lamps.

There are no known health hazards from exposure to lamps that are intact No adverse effects are expected from occasional exposure to broken lamps. As a matter of good practice, avoid prolonged or frequent exposure to broken lamps unless there is adequate ventilation. The major hazard from broken lamps is the possibility of sustaining glass cuts.
